Road Test: 2016 Ford Focus RS - The Wait is Over for Ford's AWD Hot Hatch

If we told you that a Ford Focus was one of a few legendary vehicles that we’ve pined for over the years, you’d probably think we’re crazy. Unless of course you are familiar with the Focus RS. The “RS” is Ford Europe’s Rally Sport racing division that campaigns in rallycross and road rallies all over the world. So this Focus RS is sort of like what a Shelby Mustang was in the 60’s.

The 2016 Ford Focus RS is the first global RS performance vehicle; which means it’s also the first one we’ve gotten here in the States. And to some, the fact that it is the most powerful Focus ever, may be akin to saying it’s the best tasting lima beans they’ve ever eaten. But, not so fast.
